Servings: 4 people
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or avocado oil divided
- 1½ pounds ground turkey
- 3 garlic cloves minced
- 2 teaspoons fresh ginger peeled and minced
- 1/2 cup vegetable or chicken broth
- 1/3 cup coconut aminos can be subbed with soy sauce
- 1½ teaspoons toasted sesame oil
- 9 ounces package coleslaw mix pre-shredded cabbage and carrot slaw
- 3-4 green onions, chopped
- sriracha sauce or sweet chili sauce to taste
- 1 package of defrosted egg roll wrappers OR tortillas
Instructions
- In a large pan over medium heat, add 1 teaspoon of oil and the ground turkey, breaking it up into small pieces till it is browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes.
- Add garlic and ginger, cooking for about a minute, stirring often. Stir in the cabbage slaw mix and most of the green onions (saving about 2 tablespoons for garnish) and cook for around 3 minutes, until the cabbage has softened. Add in broth, coconut aminos (or soy substitute), and sesame oil, stirring till combined and warmed through.
- Make the egg roll crunchies: Preheat oven to 400℉/200℃. Slice defrosted egg roll wrappers into thin 1/2 inch strips and place them on a sheet pan. Toss with 2 teaspoons of avocado or olive oil. Bake for 3-5 minutes until brown and crispy. Watch them carefully as they tend to brown quickly!
- Place all the ingredients in a bowl and top with egg roll crunchies, add sriracha or sweet chili sauce as needed.
Notes
- Turkey - Can be substituted with ground pork, ground beef, or ground chicken.
- Coconut aminos - These add a light sweetness and are lower sodium than soy. If using soy, cut back on the amount of added salt and pepper to taste.
- Coleslaw mix - This can be substituted with shredded cabbage if you'd like but the mix makes this dish really fast.
- For Whole30, Paleo, and Gluten free - simply leave out the wonton chips or sub cassava strips.
